The company began as a family business in 1978 as Gingras Corriveau, a welding and repair shop run by Robert Corriveau, Philippe Gingras, and Louis Gingras. In 1986, Gingras Corriveau began distribution of BIBEAU dump-body products. This new partnership combined Gingras Corriveau’s quality installation techniques and responsive after sale service with BIBEAU’s superior dump box products. Gingras Corriveau soon became the number one BIBEAU dealer in Canada.
In 2002, Luc Stang, a nephew of Corriveau, bought the company from the original own ers and subsequently rebranded it as GinCor. Stang continues today as President and CEO of the privately-owned business.

And in February 2024, Gincor Werx acquired Wiltsie Truck Bodies, maker of a diverse line of dump and truck bodies, pony trailers and flat decks. The company also offers repairs, painting, wheelbase changes and lift-axle calibrations, in addition to distribution for brands such as Grote, Whiting and Tommy Gate. While Wiltsie will be eventually be rebranded as Gincor, their customer base can expect business to continue as usual.
Christian Stang, VP of Business Development, commented on this latest acquisition, saying, “For us, it’s a matter of putting in our best practices and trying to keep some of their best practices. What this acquisition means to Gincor is to be able to better support our current existing client base in southwestern Ontario. Bringing our best practices into that business, and then we start looking at their processes and procedures. Is there something that we can learn? We believe that we can always learn something from somebody.”
